The Doctors Discussion Thread

I don't like the thing with Mike, either (especially with the annoying sax music) - but like the others, I like Nancy when she is working with her patients, consulting with the other members of the staff, and when she was working with Anna. Actually, Nancy Donohue to me looked like Anne Bancroft - and The Graduate still would have been a pretty popular movie back then.

I sent a message to SFM Entertainment, which is the distributor for "The Doctors,' telling them I was enjoying the show and asking about possible DVD release, including the episodes that we haven't seen. The response was very positive (I had mentioned that fans had been in contact with various cast members via social media so that's why he asked me for contact information).

Jane:

Thank you for your most articulate and complimentary note. We are so pleased that you are enjoying "THE DOCTORS", as it took a great deal of time, efforts and persistence to return this iconic series to television. The outpouring of favorable audience reaction has been remarkable. You help to make all our efforts worthwhile. I have shared it with the people at RetroTV, who,also, saw the merits of returning this iconic series to today's television audience.

Yes, there are plans to issue these shows on DVD and, once that is put in place, we would plan on adding some of the materials you refer to in your note. That will include earlier episodes and interviews, provided we can locate the 'still living' talent. If you have some contact information from various cast members, please forward to me here at SFM.

Stay tuned!

All the best.

They didn't specifically say anything about future episodes on Retro TV but I did let them know I was enjoying the show on Retro. I had sent an e-mail to Retro last week but received a canned response that others have also received.

They sound very committed to the show and very pleased with the viewership. That's good to hear, especially since they have a smaller number of affiliates than some of the other classic tv stations.

Question: Is anyone able to find Liz Hubbard's Brim coffee commercial circa 1981? Carl posted an AMC episode that had that commercial in it (on page 90 of this thread) but it has since been taken off YT, dagnabit!!! I'd love to see it again if anyone can find it - I've tried and so far have come up empty. Thanks!!

    • Yet another reason some of the characters need servants.  Since some of the sets do not include front doors, servants could answer the off-screen door and escort guests into the living room(s).  
    • I remember them showing a map of Michigan during one of Rachel's adventures, and you are probably correct here.  But the map may have been used in 1978, when Sven kidnapped Rachel and characters were searching for her. They had no idea Sven had hidden her right there on the Cory estate.  So that's just another possible sighting of the infamous map.  
    • The one thing that drives me nuts about this show is that all these wealthy people never lock their doors and everyone just walks in without even knocking.  I live out in the boonies with no neighbors close by, but I always have my doors locked day or night!
    • All the best people are at the bottom of the list. Lauren, Michael, Chloe, Traci, Ashley, Mariah, Sharon, Amanda, Devon. I’d rather see more of these people than anyone in the top 10.. (with the exception of Jack and Diane) because I am still enjoying their scenes. 
    • The live video tribute to Drake last night with current and former actors Thread with link to video: https://boards.soapoperanetwork.com/topic/68987-days-currentformer-actors-live-video-tribute-for-drake-hogestyn  They said that the episodes were filmed out of order over a span of time. As we already knew, re: the upcoming memorial service (not spoiling the airdate here)... the memorial service was taped *before* Drake passed away, and then the studio was on a preplanned hiatus, and the actors learned of his passing during the hiatus. New info from the video last night, is that some of what recently aired (such as June 3rd episode ) was taped *after* the hiatus, so after Drake passed away. Maybe I misunderstood what Martha Madison said, but it sounded that way. My god, I don't know how the actors filmed it, especially Diedre.   
    • I did not expect Peter Reckell to be the one to break my heart today. Incredible scenes with Bo and his family.
    • Barbara, to me, is a mixture of Florence Ballard and Betty McGlown/Barbara Martin (both McGlown and Martin were part of the Primettes before they became a trio and were renamed the Supremes).
    • Maeve Kincaid said in interviews that she misses slapping Jordan Clarke's face..something along the lines "He knew how to take a slap!"   Or voodoo dolls..LOL!
    • Staci Greason was in Paris during this live tribute, which would have been in the middle of the night where she was. So Fairman arranged to pretape Greason earlier in the same day, and then spliced her part into the end of the video after the live feed, and it's all on the same youtube.
    • Agree to disagree. I like it. No doubt it's different. It's supposed to be. Is it dated? Yes, but then that's natural, it's from 1977. I think that reviewer needed to watch a few more episodes. It is clever but not precocious. The role reversal IMO works & well. The best thing I could advise anyone interested, is to try it for yourself, you can always quit it if you don't like it. As much of it as some of us were able to gain access to are up on the Internet Archive & also on my Rumble acct. If you need further directions, PM me.
